I liked most of it. combat seemed to take a bit longer than I expected. seems like a basic MMO otherwise but I like the setting.

my view being a FF11 vet(of sorts),it seems like it is a much more basic MMO,but you know that might be just the ticket,all the rest are making MMOs that are a pain in the ass to get going/learn...this will appeal to a large crowd wanting to get into MMOs and there being enough there for seasoned MMO'ers(later on)

Combat,in phase 3 it was just spamming the same button/action..however in Phase 4,i found out you can link actions,so that made it a little more interesting,i still wish Limit Breaks were available outside of Dungeons(in dungeons i use them and they seem to have fuck all effect on the bad guys)

I didn't get much combat time; I spent most of it taking screen captures and exploring but I didn't want to get too far only to have to replay it again so soon. I imagine the linking of actions comes into play past level 5, which is as far as I made it with either character.

I generally enjoyed the beta and feel a bit of a tug to play right now, but I am concerned about the combat system. It does feel a bit simplistic--sort of like Guild Wars 2 (although with weapon/pet/element swapping GW2 can get complex when you start to delve deeply into it). However, I'm hopeful that it gets better later on. The graphics are certainly nice, and the setting seems decent. I always liked EQ2 better than WoW, and it definitely has a bit of EQ2 feel to it if the combat gets more complex as you level up. The crafting certainly has an EQ2 feel (post patch where EQ2 made crafting a bit simpler).

Just tried to register my code and got the generic "Error 3: Try again later" error that 190 pages worth of people also seem to be getting. Oddly, I was able to register it in my profile on the main SE site last week, but it has since disappeared from "My Games" list. When I try to re-enter the serial number, I now get a "Invalid code" message. Still have yet to receive a single email from SE confirming my pre-order purchase, even though I've submitted a support ticket for it.

Given their massive number of account fuckups, I'll be absolutely shocked if I'm able to play this game during the early access. I'm seriously considering cancelling my pre-order and just waiting to jump in until they get this mess sorted out. I won't have much of a chance to play during the 3-day early access period this weekend anyways, and the pre-order bonuses were 'meh'.

Just cancelled my order through SE's online retailer and will be pre-ordering a physical copy from Gamestop later today. I actually get the same early access and goodies, and I'll feel a lot more comfortable having an actual copy of the game rather than a sketchy, unconfirmed download from the SE store.

1)-if you have registered the code and got your PSN code and downloaded the game ..you can now update the game,,it will list a lot of new agreements that you have to click on but somewhere in there,it will tell you about the pre-order bonuses you are getting

the update is 1827mb..just finished mine,but the progress bar is not even half full,its now updating something

but its good getting all this out of the way now,rather than Saturday morning when the Early Access starts

2)-GAME just sent me an email saying my Debit Card has been charged for my Collectors Edition,yippeeee
